Connecting various subjects during UPSC preparation involves integrating concepts across different disciplines. For example, understanding Indian polity can be enhanced through relating it to geography or economics. Creating mind maps or conceptual diagrams facilitates this cross-disciplinary approach. Regular revision sessions with an emphasis on connecting the dots between subjects can enhance retention. Discussions with peers can also stimulate interdisciplinary thinking, while attempting previous year's questions requiring integrated knowledge encourages this synthesis. This approach not only prepares candidates better but also enriches their analytical abilities.
